High Sheriff College Champions is a new addition to enable Kurshida to work with young people drawn from Milton Keynes College and Bucks College Group to provide opportunities for them to showcase their skills.  Kurshida hopes to learn from the young people so that she can better understand the issues faced by them within the County, as well as provide an opportunity to give voice to young people to empower and nurture their development.

“Building aspiration in our learners by opening doors to new experiences for them is key to our Fairer Futures strategy, so we were thrilled when Kurshida approached us with her idea for High Sheriff’s College Champions. The students are also excited by what opportunities this year will bring - we can’t wait to see what they’ll achieve together with Kurshida.”
